Smile

What happened to the time? I swear that George was in diapers only a couple of years ago. And now I have gray hair. Thank god for skin cream and makeup.

The lack of wrinkles seem to be the only thing going right. I thought things couldn’t get worse when the stove caught fire. But no that was just the start of the summer of doom. Robert finally brought his girlfriend over to meet me. And then calmly announced that they were engaged. Yes, engaged. Never mind the fact that they just graduated high school. And get this. they are going to get married on his birthday. Great.

But wait, it gets better. While trying to relax and enjoy the day off by watching the boys play video games. Mark very casually stated that he was going to be a father. A FATHER!!!! and the mother is Sharon Crabtree. Why Me?!

What’s a hardworking under appreciated, loving, stressed out, unlucky mother of three teenage boys (only one of which is saine) suppose to do? I certainly don’t know. So, I decided to try to go with the flow and just smiled and cooked. When Robert came home with Ella (and all her belongs) an gave her the wedding ring in the middle of the kitchen while I was preparing dinner. I smiled and continued to cook.

When Jennifer and Sharon Crabtree came over for dinner. And Sharon had to run to the bathroom to empty her stomach. I smiled and gave thanks that Robert directed most of the conversation.

When Jennifer demanded that Mark work at the grocery for free to help pay for all the baby’s expenses. Even though that would force to to close down the bakery for the fall. Because Robert and Ella were going on an extended honeymoon. And George wanted to go to college and had to focus on school in the fall, so he would be to busy with his studies. Not considering the fact that it is impossible to find people willing to travel to Oasis Valley for a job that pays so little, so I will not be able to hire anyone to take his (Mark) place. I just smiled and agreed.

But really, inside I was crying. Why Me?! First my husband and youngest son die, now this. When will it end.

Poor Susan. It seems that the sim gods hate her. I feel asleep while loading Just Desserts. When I woke up all the kitchen equipment had been burned down and George was dead. Luckily, I had a recent save of the game. So, I just re-installed it. I don’t think she could have survived losing George (even though he is not a major player in the storyline, yet.)

I really like writing first person it gives so much more freedom

I really didn’t want my playable sims to mate among each other until at least generation 4. But this is okay. It’s just one family. Hopefully, ROS will not throw another wrench into my plans.
